Dol-Llys Farm Campsite Review

During a motorcycle camping trip to Powys in Wales I stayed for a night at Dol-Llys Farm Campsite near the small historic market town of Llanidloes.
Located in a beautiful area of Wales, with excellent motorcycle riding, the campsite is located just 20 minutes walk from the town with all facilities.

On this trip I’m using a new tent, the Robens Elk River 1, an initial review of which can be seen here:

I knew you would love this campsite Andy, We stay here quite often as a family, and use it for a base for Rhayader, Aberystwyth, and Gigrin Farm to see the red Kites being fed. They also have freezers that you can put your freezer blocks in. Also if you do go back, and it is on a Sunday, book in to the red Lion Pub for the Carvery, very reasonable and homemade 😊

[@thecampingbiker791]

Thanks Andy, wonderful site and I most certainly will revisit and Red Lion is definitely in the diary 😃

[@royblackburn1163]

Superb hobby, many thanks for your reviews.

[@thecampingbiker791]

It is indeed Rob! Glad you and others enjoy the reviews…they have a good following but not massive viewing figures, it’s very niche but I enjoy passing on my thoughts. Thanks for following, greatly appreciated.

[@user-ud1ox1rb2i]

Heading to Wales tomorrow and will be staying at this site. Thanks for reviewing it.

[@thecampingbiker791]

Nice one John, let them know where you saw it and enjoy your visit

@@thecampingbiker791 this is only my 2nd trip camping off the bike. Your vids have been inspirational. Thanks.

[@thecampingbiker791]

@@user-ud1ox1rb2i reallly appreciate that John, it’s so nice to know the effort is worthwhile… there’s some other sites coming up soon 👍🏻

Andy, I love in Wales and not yet taken advantage of such camping sites. I still haven't been camping on my bike, yet. Nice review 👌 I do like quiet and maybe fear rocking up to noise and screaming kids. Maybe it's best out of season when the children are back in school. Keep up the reviews 👍atb Taff 🤠👊

[@thecampingbiker791]

Thanks Taff, I’d definitely leave it until kids at school…weekends are busy but weekdays usually quite! You must give the bike camping a go…a man of the woods should be able to pack light 😆 👍🏻

Just came across your channel spot on mate 👌

Thank John, it’s a great community of like minded people on here!

Cracking mate, I've been looking at campsites in Wales today, i think you've saved me a job 👍thanks mate, great video as always.👌

[@thecampingbiker791]

Thanks Steve 👍🏻

[@S.p.a.c.e.C.o.w.b.o.y]

I might make a stop there myself, I'll be passing close in a few weeks. Great review.😊

[@thecampingbiker791]

Won’t be disappointed, lovely site 👍🏻

[@porter5877]

I was in Wales this Monday to today and I stayed at the wildmanwoods campsite mid Wales. You have to check it out it blew me away.i camped right by the river fire pit already set up for campers.a very well thought out site.

[@thecampingbiker791]

Excellent info, looks really good and I’ve pinned it for a future visit.. thanks mud-monkey…Al the best, Andrew

[@Jedward7009]

Thank you for another campsite review Andy. This will be another campsite that I intend to stay on after watching your review. Thanks as always for mentioning the access roads and nearest town to get provisions. Mike

[@thecampingbiker791]

Thanks Mike, this one is best on a weekday as the weekends can get busy with screaming kids…unless your taking kids and then it’s great at weekends 😂

[@Jedward7009]

Thanks Andy

[@CarparkCarl]

What a lovely site! River side eating looked nice! Love the reviews as always sir!

[@thecampingbiker791]

Can’t better a riverside location…other than a sandy remote beach one! Cheers Carl, how are you getting on and still off roading

[@CarparkCarl]

@@thecampingbiker791 Bit of a break over winter but was out last week and 4 days off work as of tomorrow to go riding, probably no camping though :(

[@thecampingbiker791]

@@CarparkCarl out on bike is good though…I’m off on trip somewhere mid June but no idea where yet!

Absolutely fantastic review Andy 👏 looks like I'll be off here too in July 👍ps your looking well too mate 👍

[@thecampingbiker791]

Thanks Andy, you won’t be disappointed! I’m feeling much better than previous 18 month, been a bit of a slog with health but still managed to get out and about regardless…well most of the time and shorter trips 😂 👍🏻

[@fengbi5653]

Brilliant review Dan makes me want to go. In fact seeing some of your old videos on the Lake District I’m venturing off there in a couple of weeks time and would love your recommendations on the best sites to stay . I hope to do all the passes.👍🏍️

[@thecampingbiker791]

Thanks fengbi, I’m on the road as we speak but will get back to you with some perfect and cheap sites near the Lakeland passes when I get home tomorrow…you’ll love them 👍🏻

[@thecampingbiker791]

Hi Fengbi, any of the following sites would be excellent for stopping and doing all the Lakeland Passes and there are reviews on each one on the channel: AMBLESIDE AREA (most central) Coniston Hall BaysBrown Farm Great Langdale National Trust KESWICK AREA: Stonethwaite Farm Seathwaite Farm ULLSWATER AREA: Side Farm I personally love the Borrowdale Valley, Keswick area but wouldn’t hesitate to stop at any of them. The National Trust site is excellent but a bit pricy at this time of year! Good luck and possibly plan your route with a stop at different sites, even better 😃

[@edwardcarr2725]

This looks great. And only 2 hours away

[@thecampingbiker791]

It’s a very nice site, I suspect busy on summer weekends.. the owners are also lovely people

[@Themotograndpa]

Great review Andy was looking for a campsite to base myself and go off on the bike did you do any route around there ? Or any suggestions pls 👍

[@thecampingbiker791]

Thanks and great central location good roads any direction… to be honest I just travelled there on main roads, which are all great, but there’s lots of smaller B roads and one I’ve flagged for future visit is the B4518 from there up to Clwyedog Reservoir then on to Llanbrynmair on A470 then circle to coast and back (any route will be good)

[@johnniel8116]

do you have to book for a couple of nights ?

[@thecampingbiker791]

I only had one night but possibly weekend summer you might..

[@johnniel8116]

£13 sounds good to me !

[@thecampingbiker791]

Top end for me but have to say worth it for this site.. loved the camping down by the river

[@fengbi5653]

Sorry I mean Andy 😂🤣🤪

[@thecampingbiker791]

I’ve been called worse 😂 😂
